    Seems like my amp wont turn on till temp comes up, heater/wheelwelltemp seeing the amp is above one
    of course im talking my car sits dead for 10 hours in 20 to 30 degree when it does happen out side
    when i worked on car audio we didn't get many audi's at the time with bose systems but i remember ford exploders with bose system half had issues

    wondering if it my amp going bad or just normal. wish it was easy to swap all the speakers to after market and another amp but thats like a whole day of car audio im not willing to do at this time
    ive already replaced the amp once from not turning on at all

    That happend to me everytime the temp was below 35f. It would turn on after 10 mins of driving. I was told it was the amp. Not got around to fixing the issue though.

    I experienced this as well. I find once the car warms up that the radio would come on. I am planning on swapping out the amp soon to fix this issue when I upgrade my sound system.

    big question is will it fix the issue or just bad luck of the amp freezing and locking up
    new amp i guess could do the same i was trying to see if alot of people experience it.

    or if they know for sure a new amp would fix it, my first bose amp went out fully not sure if it was related or not to the cold issue
